THE SECRET OF SUCCESS.


Choose thou, oh. youth. Thy path in life
Let not events decide;
BE not, in lifr's momcatous strife.
Like weeds upon tide.
Determine what lay aifr shall b.,
Toll with that aim III view:
II circumstances hinder thee,
Make circurn stances new.
De not the iron that is bent
And beaten as IL glows;
But be, through full and fixed intent,
The arm that gives the blows.
Remember this: We can attain
What fully we intend;
We for ourselves ourselves ordzin
Lilies destiny and end.
They win ia life who viii to win,
They fail who faint and fear.

No obstacles appear.

THE SAN ANTONIO AND ARKANSAS PASS

SAN ANTONIO, TEX, Dec. 9.-It is

Whist is considered good authority that
the San Antonio and Arkansas Pass Rail.
road has been purchased by the Atchison,
Eopeka snd Santa Fe. Officials in the
general Offices Of the Arkansas Pass in this
city ere non-CCmmittal as to the sale
which is taken as virtual
admission that the negotiations in
this direction which sre known to have
been in progress for msny months have
been consummated. The San Antonio
and AreDess Pass Railroad has been
building only two years, but in that time
800 miles OF trsck have been completed.
Toe A;chison by this purchase secures
another strong feeder to it's system In the
southwest. The Arkansas Pass connects
San Antonio and it's trade territory with
the Gulf at three points-Corpus
Christi, Galveston and Arkansas Pass,
and tx.ends northwest OF this city
through a stock and agricultural region
lot touched by any other railroad. By
the consolidation of the two roads 1t is
expected the Gould system in the. south
west will have powerful rival.

case of P. S Garfield vs. Walter Gresham
ct al. Of the Twentieth Legislature for
$780, 600 damages for false Imprisonment,
came up in the District court today, but
was postponed to December 81. The
defendants will plead first, general de-
NAL; second, that the privilege of mem
bers OF the Legislature relating to words
spoken on the fl )or of the House, extends
also to their votes, and that therefore
teey cannot be held liable in this csse !:
third, that the defendants cannot
be held liable, because the plaintiff was
obstructing the proceedings of the House
OF Representatives and by the constitu-
ton, one who obstructs Its proceedings
may be imprisoned. Msjor Walton as
leading counsel for Mr. Garfield, will be
assisted by Messrs. Peeler & Peeler. The
defendants counsel are Messrs. Z. T.

| that all was quiet and that no trouble was
anticipated. a proposition was sent TO
the DOwnings last nlght, asking that the
contests of both parties in both Councils
be withdrawn, and cOnsenting TO count
votes for Chief. The Downings demand
cd the vote be counted st once and the
contests be settled later.
